When one user posted "I will gladly pay $50 for a tomato...so long as I never have to hear spanish in public again," Curtis Yarvin—the blogger philosopher king of the far right who describes himself as a "royalist" and is eagerly read and cited by Vice-President J.D. Vance,
among some 60000 other followers—coyly queried, "I wonder if there is another domestic population capable of agricultural labor." The answer he wants to conjure depends on the history of racializing and naturalizing exploitative farm work, where some sweat and toil while others profit.
Yarvin is not being ironic in pointing his finger at Blacks as suitable replacement field hands: he believes "slavery is a natural relationship...one to which humans are biologically adapted." That paragraph didn't make it in the piece, though: theconversation.com/these-people...
